"The location was excellent, and the elevator was convenient. However, my room was at the end of a long, dimly lit corridor, and the Wi-Fi only worked near the lobby, which was very inconvenient. The cleanliness was acceptable, but the toilet, sink, and shower were all in one room, and there was an overall smell of sewage that was noticeable."

"Good: Felt very safe at the accommodation and it was very clean and comfortable. Would stay and recommend to others. Very walkable to everything you need (shops) and to walk around Budapest. The self check in and access to rooms was cool and easy, only comment is that it becames a bit clunky and slow to use when going through multiple doors and when your phone is trying to connect to the WiFi. Bad/ but not really bad is the kitchen area can be loud when other people are using it and talking at...
